I deleted a user using rmuser. It found the right user and I answered yes to all the questions. After I was done the user's home directory was gone and the name was gone from the system but now there are files that belong to "1002" (which was this user's number) that show up in repquota. I don't know how to find these files or why they weren't deleted. Any ideas?

You can use the -nouser option of find. Try running the following command (it will take a long time to finish):

# find / -nouser > /tmp/filelist

When it finishes the file /tmp/filelist will contain a list of the files that belong to unknown user IDs. The find(1) manual page has many more options that you might be interested in.
